About The Cooperative

The Region 5 Curriculum Leadership Cooperative (CLC) is sponsored by the Region 5 Education Service Center. Its' purpose is to provide a vehicle for guiding students' instructional experiences toward successful transitions throughout the learning process.

The CLC documents consist of standards-based scope and sequences, benchmarks and goals, skill spreadsheets and resources (PreK-12) presented in a core curriculum approach. All documents and vertically and horizontally aligned. The CLC materials reflect national and statewide academic standards and skills and integrate real-world learning opportunities for increased student achievement.

The CLC operates with a systems approach; meaning responsibility is shared by teachers, principals and central office administrative staff. For this reason, technical support is offered in all areas of curriculum for the entire district. On-site training is recommended before the documents are distributed in order to ensure consistent implementation. Follow-up training is encouraged throughout the year in order for teachers to remain current with state legislation and its impact on their curriculum.

Since the cooperative's inception in 1990, membership has increased annually and is comprised of school districts in Texas that believe in student success, enhanced by an aligned and accredited curriculum.
